Reduce the rabbit feed bill with these 5 plants 

Are you looking for more ways to reduce the feed bill?

Thank you for this wonderful video . From one bunny lover to another . Much love from Hawaii♥️

I never knew about sunflowers, we have tons of them! Gonna be trying that this year, thanks for the great video!

Love this video!! 💕💕 Thanks 🌻🌻 are 1 of my favorite plants too!

Thank you for sharing. Very informative.

With rabbits, it's more of a question of what green leaves can't they eat!

and to those interested in their own health, the red clover flower, when brewed into a tea can be very helpful to your health...

I'd like to share some more plants i feed my rabbits. Fodder beet/mangelwurzel- Beta vulgaris- root like beet, traditionally used for cattle, yields 20-30 tonnes per acre! Great nutticious value! I they weren't so labour intensive(to prep for cattle), all dairy farmers around the world would still feed them. Rabbits eat the whole beet without leaves, not so labour intensive. When harvesting, cut the leaves above the top the beet, undamaged beets last longer. Harvested around first frost, when stored dry they'll be alrigth for up to 6 months! Leaves are not great for rabbits, but if you have meat rabbits it's alrigth because they won't get old enough to have problems from the leaves. My rabbits love them, i buy them for around €50 per metric tonne, homegrown last longer because they are cleaner and not harvested mechanically/damaged. I dare to say they cut my feed bill in half in winter+winter kits grow like hell on it. (Sweet) corn- i eat the cobs, my rabbits eat the plants and underdevelopted cobs. I leave the stalks in the ground when i harvest the corn, i'll feed them before they'll dry. You could also use regular feed corn, hang the cobs to dry and feed the plants. Downside is plants will dry out, rabbits won't bother but in some climates the stalks will turn moldy. The kernels itself are not good for rabbits, but you can feed them to meat rabbits. Again, they won't get old enough to have problems with the corn. Meat rabbits grow extremely fast when fed with corn buy they'll have some yellow fat. Around here people feed the corn on the cob, saves time shelling, easier to hang to dry and the rabbits can eat it easier.

Great info.They are ALL so adorable🐇 Whats the name of the tall grass u stood next to? I live in FL . ThanQ

I have been feeding floribunda roses and raspberry vines although I only feed raspberry vines last week of pregnancy or dry does. Cut some locust limbs for high protein for my lactating does.

Thanks for the video. Very inspiring. I'm wondering what you grow for protein? I've been reading that younger rabbits need lots of alfalfa for protein . I suspect that the sunflower plant and bean plants would constitute as a protein supplement? Thanks again.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!! 😊

Wild rabbits are eating passion fruit leaves and peanut leaves on my homestead.. I will plant more for them

Thank you for the video, it was helpful. Can you tell me about the collapsible exercise pen? Like where you bought it, what is the shape and size, or if it has another name it's known by?

What about cochioditis ?

How about flax grass? We are growing a lot to harvest the seeds. Thank you so much

Hi, interesting video. I have pet rabbits rather than for meat, but like to give them lots of foraged plants. Do you feed them any pellets or avoid them altogether? Thanks.

I have green pole beans that have wonderful leaves but it’s not producing beans. Are those leaves I could harvest and feed or dry for winter? I was going to pull them out anyway to plant other stuff. Thanks!

What type of pellet feeders are those? I have bowls right now but am looking at this type. Also did you have to cut the cage to install them?

Can guinea pigs eat sunflower plants as well?

Do you still need to supplement with pellets?

How often should you feed the plants you listed to your rabbit?

You didn’t say the name of the grass that you can dry out for hay

Don’t harvest all the radishes… cut the greens all summer
